More pages for the Book Studio’s contribution to Bookmagazinebook’s miseducation volume:

A page by Labratt. It’s hard to reproduce; there are layers of print incorporating metallic paper.

A page by Kristin, an exchange design student from Canada.

Margaret, a 3rd year printmaking student, made a book within a book:

Stay tuned for more pages, coming soon…

And to see other Bookmagazinebook contributions, there’s now a flickr group to explore (and join, if you’re playing too).

Miseducation: the book

technical officer — Mon, 19 Feb 2007 22:46:27 +0000

Students in the Book Design complimentary unit have taken on the Book Magazine Book challenge of playing with a page of a travelling book and then passing it on. Over the next few weeks we’ll blog the progress of Miseducation as it passes through the class, and when we’re finished we’ll pass it on to someone else for another stage of its journey.

The book started here, and now today’s contribution is by Brad Santos, a 3rd-year Printmedia student:

It’s a combination of drawing, layers of collage and papercuts.

Nibbling at the architecture

Being an academic sort of blog, the Book Studio blog has had a haitus between the end of the 2006 academic year and now… but the new year starts on February 19, and good things will flow from that point.

In the meantime, if you would like to see a small informal artist’s book that reflects the streets of Brisbane sticker culture, go to this post by Byrd, a Canberra graffiti artist who has documented 12 months up north in his own special way. He’ll be back by May, and Canberra will start to look colourful again…
